Jane Rusbridge’s haunting debut novel The Devil’s Music was published by Bloomsbury in 2009, and was picked to be this year’s Bridport Literary Festival’s Big Read. She will be talking about the road to publication on Tuesday 21^st September at the HIGHGATE AND HAMPSTEAD LITERARY FESTIVAL together with literary agent Barbara Levy and Pam White, an experienced book publicist.

Jane took part in this year’s the London Writing Workshop’s Novelists’ Club, and also attended the workshop on Dialogue in 2009.

Congratulations to Annemarie Neary. Having been short-listed for the 2008 Bridport Fiction Prize, she is now one of eleven supplementary prizewinners of the 2009 Fiction Prize. This means that her story ‘Siren’ will be published in the forthcoming  Bridport anthology. Annemarie attended the Microfiction workshop in 2008 and took part in the first Novelists’ Club in 2009, although we can’t claim any credit for her success – ‘Siren’ was written before the course started. The 2009 Bridport Fiction prize was judged by Ali Smith.
